Subject: Terrapin was an anthem to the LSD gods..
I was there with my chum Ardis Clayton Trapped ... Dosed acid in the lot ...shrooms.... At some point we got split up and I had both tickets ... I remember
...
playing guitar for a nitrous vender who ended up giving me this gigantic balloon full of nitrous ... Huge ... Like 5 foot in diameter and I'm walking around the lot in the day and with this giant psychedelic balloon full of nitrous I would hit from time to time until at one point ... I fainted and let the remaining nitrous out ... I went briefly insane and came back to crowd of dead heads convening over my insanity.
The show?
Marked by THREE Dylan tunes.. (Bob forgot words to "Maggie's Farm" and Jerry was spotlighted in to save the day.. Bob then motioned that he was back and the spotlight returned to him to try again but again ? He forgot and Jerry again gets spotlighted to save the song and he yet again shines for the crowd ... Bob finally returns from insanity and finished. A Grateful Dead moment !) I remember being very high when Mickey and Billy went into "Space" and Mickey playing that very weird thing at that very end with like laser lights.. That strange sound at the end.. But it was "Terrapin Station" that blew everyone away. Jerry was very emotional .... Listen to this version? The best ever and I was there ! "The Mighty Quinn" had everyone singing along at the end. One of the best shows by anyone I've ever seen ..

Latentcosmic and I went to the same school, I think. I was 15, this was my first show. I ended up in the front row for the first set. I had an amazing
...
time and remember Bob and Brent being really on vocally and the whole group sounding amazing. Someone in the front row gave me a tab of something that made the 2nd set overwhelming, so I sought out a better spot for the sound. Be it hallucinogens or no this was one of the best concerts of my life. I miss this band terribly!

That they were! One of the best of 87 right here and that is saying alot. 1987 is full of great shows and for one to stand out like this says alot.
First ... set > Shakedown is fun but to it usualy is. I not a fan of Rooster or Althea but both deliver.A couple of fumbles in Althea doesn't stop it from being good. Masterpiece and Deal are tops but again are usually good to my ears.
Monster second starts off with Maggies>Cumberland>Playin>Terrapin which is as good as it gets. Out of Space Miracle>Stella Blue>T Stones>Lovelight great stuff! Quinn ends its very nicely.

I'd just turned 17, and went with a bunch of miscreants I was in prep school with up in the mountains. The cast of characters and that time in my life
...
make it my fondest memories of shows. I'd taped the show myself that night, but the sound sucked- I COULDN'T stop dancing around(...???...)
Anyways, thanks for putting this decent recording up.

Subject: Locomotive powered Limited by the well-produced qualities...
1st Set: Yea...A loud, hot funky "Shakedown" to open up proceedings. Things are getting sweaty in the office. These hounds are quite vocal during a fine
...
"Rooster." Despite the thin sound, "Althea" still manages to be bouncy, if a tad repetitive. "Masterpiece" flows nicely, but other copies will have better sound and reach higher transcendental levels. (a wonderfully inspirational version by DSO sparked my last Thursday.) An average "Pocky Way" is given direction by Brent's vocal improvs (that stay true this version's spirit, Bobby.) As admirable "Deal" is, the Dead's version always leaves a little to be desired. Altered slightly, what would emerge is a full-blown tight stadium rocker instead of the 'wishy-washy, blank slate' timing that envelops most of the versions.
2nd Set: Now, "Cumberland" is what the boys do well... a bluegrass oriented skiffle. They stick with the formula which makes "Maggie's" a good time. Oopsy, bobby... he's forgetting the whole of his second lyric. Plenty of good energy and fills the halls during an aimless "Playin." "Terrapin" is a monster, and one of the finest of '87. How triumphant is 8:00-9:38? Obviously we're headed straight for "Drums" Mickey wastes little time in getting to his toys. YES!! "Space" makes me kooky crazy. I think Bobby's drunk/coked up during this "Miracle." "Stella" features an extended intro to morph and sullen the crowd up. Hello there, Mr. Despondent and removed...I need food to pick up my spirits and energy during a cheesily sung "Throwing." Undeniable '77 like force. Strong anchor. Of course the middle night has to be "Lovelite" (not "NFA" like it was in Oakland or whereever) Well, in all fairness they reach a smooth rarified glide during the 1:40's/1:50s. Jerry's amusing himself throughout. Very nice frenzy moments at the very late 4's, and we get the false ending...:o) Wow!
And why wouldn't they want to continue this party? Everybody..."Come on within...You've not seen Nothing Like Mighty Quinn"
Thank you. 3 1/2 stars

This Maggies Farm reminds me of the GD experience - lunacy - disjointed but together. Almost gives me flashbacks listening to it. In particular, listen
...
to the jam after "father" verse (starting at ~5:20). It's like everyone just falls apart into their own direction yet it is one!
Outstanding!
Phil drops some great bombs after "brother" verse.
